I too used usbmount in the distant past; it is now consigned to the refuse bin of history. In my /etc/fstab I have LABEL=ARCHIVE-10 /media/ARCHIVE-10 vfat ro,gid=1000,fmask=0117,dmask=0007,noatime,noauto,user,x-systemd.automount,x-systemd.idle-timeout=5,x-systemd.device-timeout=1 0 0 The USB stick is mounted when it is accessed and unmounted after 5 seconds of non-use. Works brilliantly. -- Brian.
